✦ Synopsis

Mitochondrial malic enzyme MEM (E.C. 1.1.1.40) is present in human leukocytes; the polymorphism of MEM thus can be easily demonstrated using routine starch gel electrophoresis. Data on formal genetics are given. The gene frequency of MEM1 was estimated to be 0.67 +/- 0.02.

One hundred and sixty-seven blood donors, 26 families with 72 offspring and 12 motherchild couples were studied for the phosphoglycolate phosphatase polymorphism. In hemolysates, the isozymes are stable for at least five weeks. The distribution of observed phenotypes in the population study did not

Two major forms of fumarate hydratase have been resolved in extracts prepared from a wide variety of mammalian cells by electrophoresis. Fractionation experiments with human and mouse cells suggest that one form (the slower migrating) is localized in the mitochondria, whereas the other form is predo
